Bastrop Sheriff office improperly posted?

I visited the Bastrop County Law Enforcement Center (sheriff’s offices) today to bid a project.

They have posted a sign (I believe the old style sign) to the effect of:
Possession of a handgun under the authority of the concealed handgun…..Civil Statute 4413 (29ee)…..is prohibited.

Then there is a silhouette of a gun with red “no� slash/symbol over it.

Then again in Spanish.

I do not believe this complies with 30.06 but as I was soliciting business I did not bring it to their attention. Nor did I want to be too obvious in coping down the wordage so I paraphrased what the sign said.

The interesting thing is once you go down a hallway there is a door where the offices check their gun prior to entering the door and their holding area. Nowhere on the building is it stated that this is anything but the sheriff’s office. I knew I would be visiting the holding areas and left the weapon in the truck anyway.
